Gov. Sam Brownback has been on a two-day national media
blitz in New York promoting the state’s new lower income tax rates. He wants to
promote the state for shysters, greedy corporations and those who want to take
advantage of our states resources without paying for any of it.
His trip was covered by The
Wichita Eagle last week. Brownback said he was seeking “tax refugees,”
last Thursday, on a Bloomberg TV interview.
Any intelligent people in New York, where the interview was
held, must surely wonder what there is to do in Kansas. What do they get for
those big tax breaks? They get to live in one of the stodgiest boring big
cities in the US. There are bars and churches. Those who drive to bars will
find they get a steady diet of police harassment if they drink even a very
small amount of liquor, especially in the Old Town area.
Brownback likes to let his corporate buddies Welch on their
fair share of income tax rates which he reduced, eliminated income taxes for
most small businesses and farms and lowered rates for individual income
taxpayers. All this is designed to bring in the coldest hearted self-centered
dim wits that have already overrun our state.
Brownback knows the common people see him as a dim-witted
short-sited egotist. He needs all the help he can get so he wants to bring in
as many greedy scumbags as he can to expand his political base. The question is
“are cheaper taxes worth it to live in this culturally desolated shit-hole?”
Good commentary! But you know what he's touting to those NY billionaires - slave labor and tax-free land. What else?
